USA international Matthew Olosunde is confident Rotherham United are ready to rid themselves of their yo-yo reputation.
The Millers are hoping to avoid a sixth season alternating between Championship and League One football by staying in the second tier this term.
And the Philadelphia-born 22-year-old, who made the unique journey from New York Red Bulls to the New York Stadium via a three-anda-half year stint at Manchester United, is hoping he can help by adding to his first goal in 52 senior appearances.
Olosunde ended that long wait with an FA Cup equaliser at Everton two weeks ago.
Journey
But, despite the visitors losing 2-1 after extra-time, the 6ft 1in wing-back believes the performance against a club in contention for a Champions League place has since helped Rotherham pick up four points from a possible six - following last weekend’s 1-0 win at relegation-rivals Derby with a thrilling 3-3 midweek draw against play-off hopefuls Stoke.
